Blake's POV

You know that moment, when you kiss someone and everything around you becomes hazy, and the only thing in focus is you and this person? Well I'm experiencing that right now and the only thing I can think of is Beth's lips on mine. She's fucking kissing me. I repeat Beth is fucking kissing me. I always thought I would be the one to kiss her, but apparently I'm wrong. No matter how far apart we are, or anything we always find ourselves back to each other. Sometimes you meet someone, and it's just so clear that you belong with them on some level. As lovers, or friends, or family, or even as something entirely different. You just work, whether you understand one another or you're in love or you're partners in crime. You'll be lucky if you find all of these in one person. In this case this person is Beth, or at least for me it is. It's like, you meet these people throughout your life, out of nowhere, and they help you feel alive. I don't know if it's just a coincidence, or fate, or just sheer luck, but it makes me fucking believe in something. Some people search their whole lives to find what I've found in her, and I'd be damned if Ii let anything jeopardize that.

She puts her hands on either side of my face, and the room falls away. I get lost in the kiss and the space between us explodes. My heart rapidly beats against my chest and my arms can't bring her close enough to me. I taste her lips and right there I realize, I have been starving. I have been waiting for this for forever. I kiss her back slowly and take my time. She lightly moans and my lips move to her neck. She tangles her hands in my hair and I grip her thighs before picking her up. I carry her to her room and sit her down on the bed. I look into her eyes and say the three words I have been dying to say.

"I love you" I say

"I love you too" She smiles

I leans back in and the kiss becomes hungry. She tugs at my blue shirt which I let her pull over my head. Her hands trace my abs while I go back to kissing her neck. My hands play with her shirt for a few seconds before pulling it off. She tries to unbutton my shorts but I pull her hands away and hold them in mine. She tilts her hand, giving me more access as she moans. My hands roam her body and unbutton her shorts. I push her onto her back and kiss down her body.

"I ache to know every crevice of your body" I whisper against her, letting my fingers explore her body gently

She moans arches her back as I get closer to her panties. I skip over her area and make my way back up.

"I want to know you intimately" I whisper in her ear

She gasps as my fingers get dangerously low. I kiss her neck lightly and she starts whimpering

"I want to know what facial expression you make when I make you come" I say looking straight into her eyes

I let my finger dip inside her panties and play with her dripping center. She lets out a breathy moan before I kiss her shoulder.

"What noises you make, how your body convulses" I whisper

She moans out my name and I nibble on her ear. I know she's close so I stop my movements and hover over her.

"And most of all, I want to know how your body feels when it's touched by mine" I say kissing her.

I let her unbutton my shorts and she tugs them down. She grips me and positions me at her entrance.

"Condom" I say against her lips

"I'm on birth control" She says

And with that I make love to her...

Bethany's POV

I wake up with Blake's arms around me. I smile and snuggle further into them. The familiar smell of mint invades my nose. I rest my eyes for a few moments before opening them back up. I check the clock and decide to get up and check on Emma. I slowly unravel myself from Blake and wrap the sheet around me as I walk over to my closet to put my robe on. I carefully put the sheet back on the bed as quickly as possible so Emma doesn't see.

I quietly close my bedroom door and walk to Emma's room. I slowly push the door open a little and see that Emma is still sleeping. I walk back to the kitchen and make coffee. As I lean against the counter a pair of strong arms wrap around me. Blake kisses my shoulder and I smile. I turn around and hook my arms around his neck and kiss him.

"Well that's certainly a nice way to wake up every morning" Blake smiles

"Good morning" I smile "Emma's still sleeping so I thought I would make breakfast"

"I have a better idea" Blake says "Let's go back to bed"

"We can't have sex again Emma can wake up any minute" I say

"Who said anything about sex?" He asks "I want to sleep together. I don't mean sex, I mean sleep. Together. Under the blankets, in the same bed. With your hand on my chest and my arms around you. Preferably with the AC on high so we have to cuddle closer"

"I've missed this. Us" I smile with tears brimming my eyes "I still love you. I've never stopped actually"

"I love you more" He smiles "And I don't mean I love you more than you love me. I mean I love you more than any obstacle we're going to face. No distance can keep us apart. I want you to know that I choose you and I will choose you over and over without a doubt. And I will keep choosing you in a heartbeat"

And at this moment I realize that the best love is the one that makes you a better person, without changing you into someone other than yourself. The love I feel for Blake is a forever type of thing.
